Barcelona Tram Service

Barcelona Tram Service

The Trambaix is Barcelona’s new multi-billion euro tram service. It travels from Cornellà and Sant Just to Barcelona and further makes its way down the Diagonal to the Forum. Details of Barcelona Tram Service are listed hereunder.

Following are the varieties of trams in this second largest city of Spain.
  1   When the Tramvia Blau or the Blue Tram started running to the cable railway for Tibidabo, the mountain that stands in the north of Barcelona, since then, all the other trams had been abandoned. Earlier the Tramvia Blau used older 4-wheeled cars, blue in color. Furthermore the street where the Tramvia Blau starts is no longer called the Avenida de Tibidabo but has been renamed to Avenguda del Tibidabo.
  2   The Metre-gauge trams and Interurban trams. Apart from the city trams few other longer routes also had the feel of inter urban factor. Some of them were the metre-gauge that ran on mixed-gauge track in spite of running through the cities hence inter-worked with general trams.
  3  Other single-deck standard gauge trams ran generally on the city tracks amidst the city itself.
The Double-deck standard gauge trams ran through the circular Routes 60 and 62
  4  Service vehicles are the electric truck that connected to the trolleybus wires and appears quite surprising. One of the trolley truck numbered 25 has its origin in a Tilling Stevens chassis attained by the Sociedad General de Autobuses de Madrid. It was later bought by the Compañía General de Autobuses (CGA) which then had 64 Tillings, double-deck type TS3X, and single-deck type TS3 most modern type TS7. CGA utilised some of the Madrid Tilling chasses and built its own bodies as marque CGA España. One of them numbered 204 was transformed into a trolley-truck and re-bodied as number 25 in the year 1941.
